Info:
The Oxymix is an self-contained underwater breathing system allowing the
diver to switch between oxygen or mixed gas at any point during the
dive. This unique concept offers the advantages of two system combined
into one giving:
-discretion and long duration while being used in closed circuit
-the
most effective combination of depth and duration when used in
semi-closed circuit
The
mixgers was a combined unit CC and SCR used by Submarine pilots of the
Commando Hubert special French Forces. The unit is the predesessor of
the mixgers 97
The
duration is controlled by the soda lime capacity and is 4 hours whether
breathing oxygen or mixture. (not confirmed yet)
The
apparatus can be used for medium duration dives on oxygen (max 3 hours),
requiring short excursions (20-30 min) to depth (25-30 m) using the
appropriate mixture. (not confirmed yet) |
